Chapter One

I can't sit there anymore, she realised as she walked up to her usual spot within the Gryffindor table. Not with them two snogging the living daylights outta each other! She turned, disgusted, to the two lovebirds,

"Hello, 'Mione!" greeted Harry, finally parting with... GINNY???!? Hermione stared flabbergasted at the two.

How can you do this to me? She asked of both of them with the hurt look clearly showing in her eyes.

"Wha-What are you doing?" she asked of him, clearly shocked by such open acts of affection... that weren't aimed towards her.

"You don't want me," he stated, clearly believing her lie she had told him the night before to comfort herself, "clearly I don't want you, either," he finished with a blatantly pained expression which she missed so ignorantly,

'You said you don't love me," she answered, excusing her cruel words with his. She knew him, she knew what he was about to say, she closed her eyes and prepared for the blow,

"I don't," he uttered lightly before locking tongues once again with Ginny!!

Hermione, knowing all about Ginny's obsession with Harry since her first year, never thought it would end this way. How could he get over me so quickly? The pain of breaking up slapped her again; Harry, but was now clashed with the betrayal of one of her closest friends; Ginny.

"Dwon'ch woury boot ite 'Myownee," Ron said, who clearly tried to clam her down. Even the densest piece of lice could see that he was equally happy about Harry hooking up with his younger sister, Ginny, as he was sad about his two best friends breaking up.

Clearly even the densest piece of lice could've also seen that Harry wasn't that into Ginny and responded to every movement of Hermione instead; sadly both Ron and Hermione were oblivious to this fact.

As Lavender entered to have breakfast, she too was shocked,

"Merlin's beard! Ginny's stealing your boy, 'Mione!" she exclaimed, stating the obvious to everyone in the hall, before she realised her mistake and carefully sat as far away from the beetroot red girl left standing alone.

Burning red, Hermione sat herself on the free space beside the two lions on heat and tried unsuccessfully to ignore the avid "couple" beside her. You're so daft Lavender.

She glared darkly around the room, at anyone besides The Boy Who Has No Heart and his confused partner, she began to select suitable candidates as a catalyst to her revenge. With a glare like daggers, she scared away whoever was interrupting her planning for her retribution.

She continued to calculate in a very Hermione-like fashion, and began a hawk-like scan on the entire 7th year male population; from Gryffindor, the Hufflepuffs, then Ravenclaws and continued to Slytherins.

It stopped on a certain golden haired boy, with features that belonged to angels; living proof that looks are deceiving. He simply didn't care about affairs of others and was surrounded in a shield of Slytherins who were undoubtedly drawn to him; he didn't return her glimpse.

Perfect. Who else but Harry's counterpart, the Prince of Slytherin, would do? She glowered mischievously at the heinous pair beside her. Two Can Play The Game.
